I never want to give up on a book, but this one just didn't live up to the hype for me. I found it hard to keep going to the end. Anyone else feel the same? The characters were just kind of difficult to get into. It got better towards the end though

This is so beautifully written, such a good retelling of the famous story. I've recommended this to so many bookish friends

So in love with this book! Wasn't sure if it would be for me at first but it just captivated me from the first page. Amazing setting, beautiful love story and so tense all the way thru. Can't wait for his next one!

(for bonus points I love Madeline Miller too)

Love books with magic elements but historical bits too - one of my fav books this year!

I really liked this book, had a gripping story which is the most important thing for me!
